88649 RANUNCULUS REPENS BUTTERED POPCORN RAN HT PRICE: $ 7.50 Wonderful "Variegated Buttercup" with very low foliage toned metallic over golden centers framed with green crennations; a perfect palette of color for its bright yellow blossoms. This splendid carpeting groundcover tolerates shade but prefers moist, even boggy situation in good light to achieve its considerable beauty.

40862 REINECKIA CARNEA LIL HP CGH HH PRICE: $ 2.00 Double ranks of grass-like arched leaves only inches high line creeping soil-level rhizomes; basal reddish-magenta, scented basal flowers followed by gound level berries. This "Lily Turf Carpet" is valuable as groundcover for leggy plants; marginally hardy here even in mild winters.

72779 RHAMNUS FRANGULA FINE LINE [RON WILLIAMS] RHA HT PRICE: $ 8.75 Self shaping slim columns of very dark green thin papery leaves are intersticed to give a lacy texture close up or as an elegant backgrop; this "Ribbon Leaved Buckthorn" (PP 14,791) is hardy even in Z 2 and tolerates various soils. Wonderful vertical aspect.

89218 RHODIOLA SPECIES RUBBERLEAF CRA HT HH PRICE: $ 4.75"Tibetan Stonecrop" Tumbling carpets of short succulent stems cloaked with attractive rubbery fleshy rounded leaves (like a Sedum J. Creech) surviving Z6 winters. From Longwood Gardens #2002-1029.

72710 RHODODENDRON RUKIZO ERI HT HH PRICE: $ 10.00 [Kazan Azalea] Very slow growing bonsai or trough candidate with wide habit detailed with exquisite heart shaped very heavily textured dark green leaves; the dramatic salmon (orange blushed) blossoms seem de trop. This is tiny.

70387 RHODODENDRON SILVER SWORD ERI HT PRICE: $ 7.25 "Variegated Azalea" Leaves margined white; soft red flowers. Sport of 'Girard's Rose' patent #4718.

71057 ROBINIA PSEUDOACACIA FRISIA LEG HT PRICE: $ 35.00"Golden Black Locust" Cultivar with orange toned branchlets with wine red prickles nearly obscured by the honey yellow lacy foliage; 1937 Holland selection noted for keeping bright gold foliage all season. A graceful yet striking standout in any garden--one of the few yellow variegated trees that actually remains bright throughout the season for us.

92705 ROBINIA PSEUDOACACIA LACE LADY [TWISTY BABY] LEG HT PRICE: $ 35.00 The extremely twisted branches of this "Contorted Black Locust" make for an outstanding winter display. Blossoms not yet observed; the thick foliage tresses flaunt the silvery green backleaf to great visual effect.

40889 ROHDEA JAPONICA LIL CGH HP PRICE: $ 10.00 "Sacred Lily of China" Thick dark leathery lance leaves rise in two packed ranks; club-like inflorescence with stubby yellow flowers; excellent pot plant in northern climes, winter hardy in South; typically hardy in our modified Z6b climate, yet sustaining some foliar damage in severe winters.

71174 ROSA CHINENSIS VIRIDIFLORA ROS HH HT PRICE: $ 10.00 "Green China Rose" Double green blossoms actually may be more of a case of multiple sepals. More bizarre than lovely and thus essentially a must for serious collectors of the blossom virid.. Easily grown short shrub easily producing a considerable number of rosa verde. Easily bloomed also in the winter greenhouse.

70405 ROSA RED CASCADE [HYB] ROS HT PRICE: $ 5.75Widely arching canes with deep green foliage produce a constant succession of sprays of small rich red double blossoms even in the winter greenhouse--although quite winter hardy in our Z6b. Interesting in large hanging baskets or cascading from large urns; but unrivaled as a constantly reblooming ground cover in full sun. These are well established plants. We have trialed dozens of trailing roses--this is the one with good dark glossy foliage and constant flushes of blossoms, even during hot summers.

71152 ROSA SI [HYB] ROS HH CGH PRICE: $ 10.00 "Bonsai Rose" Miniature short (soon clumping) wiry woody stems support congested puffs of impossibly tiny glossy leaves topped with very demure teensy light pink windmill petaled blossoms. Although first treasured by lite gardeners, the bonsai fanciers have seriously embraced this astoundingly minute (yet quite vigorous) shrublet long popular with the designers of "High End" troughs. We have increased the number of our stock plants in order to keep up with demand. This always draws comment here at the gardens as a fully ten inch high twiggy shrublet in the rockery is busy boasting a topping of its dimunitive blossoms throughout the season.

70409 ROSA WICHURAIANA CURIOSITY [VARIEGATA] ROS HT PRICE: $ 8.50 Rare "Memorial Rose" cultivar with white frosted and mottled shiny leaves taking on pink tones in cool weather. The variegation does not fade with summer heat in our climate. Striking import from Japan with shell pink blossoms produced in glorious masses late spring on the previous year's impressively arching canes. Resistant to most rose pests if given good air movement and full sun.

70577 ROSA WICHURAIANA PORTERIFOLIA ROS HT PRICE: $ 6.25"Japanese Mat Rose" Absolutely prostrate stems with glossy bright foliage and antique white single flowers with large puffs of yellow stamens (remember: this is a species not evolved into reblooming), followed by showy red hips. Excellent groundcover in a bright difficult spot, or spilling from a window box outdoors, or hanging over the edge of a large urn. A old glossy tangle of this has never grown over two feet tall for us, nor has it seeded anywhere.

71523 ROSA VERSCHERN [HYB] ROS HH CGH PRICE: $ 38.00 The famous "Variegated Rose" of Danish horticulture with richly splashed foliage perfect with the lovely double pink "Hybrid Tea Rose" blossoms topping the short upright canes. Yinger kindly shared this potentially difficult (because a cold greenhouse subject in far northern winters) creature with us; these are small rooted established cuttings--and since taken from mature wood, are inclined to bloom very early on under your careful supervision. Much in demand with the hobby greenhouse crowd so current availability can be less than immediate, although we have kept up admirably the last two seasons--as we have found this glorious prima donna to be impossibly difficult to ship during the heat of summer, we thus will hold your summer order until early fall. We have one specimen at the nursery here which as now survived seven winters outdoors without any severe damage.

71550 RUBUS COCKBURNIANUS AUREUS ROS HT PRICE: $ 6.00 Same brilliant chalk white prickle strewn winter canes as species, but with the summer interest of bright ochre gold foliage; can reach to 9' in fertile soil we are told; but always under 3' for us. A dramatic thorny arching splash of gold in the garden, most effective against plum toned foliage of nearby neighbors.

81716 RUDBECKIA MAXIMA COMP HT PRICE: $ 4.75 Outstanding foliage of somewhat succulent wide glaucous gray leaves often reaching an upright foot plus length over which tall erect stout stems carry oddball "Black-eyed Susan" erect blossoms with very tall elongated black centers skirted by drooping narrow pale gold ray petals. Must have full sun and good air movement to achieve its dramatic presence. One of the few instances in which a daisy is valued more for its foliar display than for its floral show, slowly clumping to form an architectural presence.

81858 RUMEX SANGUINEUS POLYGO HT HH PRICE: $ 8.00 "Bloody Dock" red beet foliage with purple veins. Excellent foliage oddity for the perennial border; the taproot assures this North African's winter hardiness--newly popular as a willing candidate as bog garden eye candy. The oddly attractive nubby odd mahogany red inflorescence is often used in bouquets & as an herbal remedy (but for what?). Edible fresh foliage fun to include in a salad for its remarkable color.

80380 RUTA GRAVEOLENS HARLEQUIN [VARIEGATA] RUT HT HH PRICE: $ 3.25 "Snowy Rue" Stout stems are graced with glaucous flattened leaves, with lobed segments appearing ferny, emerging richly splashed white during cool seasons; odd mustard-yellow flowers followed by ornate seed pods. If given excellent winter drainage, this "Snowy Herb of Grace" best known in Europe as the "Harlequin Rue," has proven quite reliably winter hardy for us in Ohio as a subshrub in the rockery.

81228 RUTA ODORATA RUT HH HT PRICE: $ 4.25 "Dwarf Rue" Evergreen lacy pale bluegreen foliage--far more pale and more deeply divided leaflets than other species; short woody stems are topped by yellow lime blossoms. As is suggested by the name, pleasantly oddly frangrant. Trough garden designers find this dimunitive enough to share space with others.

80861 SAGINIA [ARENARIA] SUBULATA AUREA CAR HT PRICE: $4.75 "Pearlwort" or "Golden Scotch Moss" mats of glossy bristled lime gold foliage with minute fragrant white flowers. Excellent for rockeries; lovely in containers. "Goldmoss Sandwort" looks quite delicate, but needs a somewhat exposed full sun location to survive a wet winter.

42096 SAGITTARIA GRAMINEA CRUSHED ICE ALI HT HH PRICE: $ 14.00 "Variegated Arrowhead" Mostly emerged 6' stems; sword-like yellow and orchre mottled arrowleaves ; white fls. Native bog plant needs root area completely submerged. his can be quite hardy. Also in our perennial section.

71029 SALIX CHAENOMELOIDES SAL HT PRICE: $ 8.00 Long shoots produce glossy red winter buds from which emerge large 3" catkins of silvery white, shading to dusty pink as pinkish stamens appear--typically starts this showy event in Febuary before the European "Pussy Willow" catkins appear (and are considerably less showy). Quite dark glosy clean foliage turns golden in the late fall.

70668 SALIX CINEREA TRICOLOR SAL HT PRICE: $ 4.75 Cultivar of European "Gray Sallow Willow" with downy leaves mottled yellow & creamy white, sometimes with red tones. The seemingly laquered slim rouged current season whips are much used in basketweaving (they lose flexibility and hue if more than a year old); also popular in flower arrangments--indeed more popular during its dormant period. Easily pruned--even stooled--to maintain a small shrub size; or allowed to become a small tree. Quite popular.

89179 SALIX FURCATA [HYMELANICA] SAL HT PRICE: $ 8.50 A delicately "Prostrate Willow" of uncertain origin. Tiny leaves on arching branchlets; excellent in troughs.

70925 SALIX GILGIANA CODE PRICE: $ 5.75 Attractive 10' willow with narrow chartreuse and turquoise leaves of delicate size appearing after the curious reddish-purple (turning to blackish maroon) silvery haired catkins, oddly held in opposite pairs, fade & fall. Curious among willows for its delicacy of form with the chalky barked new stems very lovely with the small but plentiful purple blushed silvery paired catkins often appearing as early as January (and usually lasting through March), especially if you place this lovely shrub so that you can view the catkins through the winter sun..

71413 SALIX INTEGRA HAKURO HISHIKI [ALBO MACULATA] SAL HT PRICE: $ 3.75 "Dappled Japanese Willow" features bright stems with long leaves variegated with white & pale pink--when foliage is emerging the plant seems covered with bright snow. If stooled, the brooms of stem whips form quite a winter outline. Very popular with garden designers even though the catkins are of little interest.

70583 SALIX MATSUDANA TORTUOSA GOLDEN CURLS SAL HT PRICE: $ 3.75"Dragon Claw Willow" or "Golden Corkscrew Willow" Yellow-barked spirally twisted branches give the tree a weeping zigzag appearance; narrow pendant leaves also curled. Sometimes listed S. x erythroflexuosa, an Argentine hybrid. Develops a better form and richer color if not located in a bogy situation.

70415 SALIX MELANOSTACHYS SAL HT PRICE: $ 3.00 "Black Pussy Willow" Dark stems populated with bizarre black purple catkins with red anthers in early spring. Know your plant: a customer once called in February in great alarm because her willow had broken out in thousands of black wooly worms!

70927 SALIX NIGRICANS [MYRSINIFOLIA ALPICOLA] SAL HT PRICE: $ 4.50 "Leatherleaf Willow" Oval leathery rich deep green leaves on pubescent whitish branchlets; Central European species reaching 50 feet--excellent as a small shade tree as outline as foliage is unusually attractive. Usually flat crowned densely branched shrub-tree with masses of petite spring catkins great in arrangements. Not to be confused with melanostachys which is called the "Black Pussy Willow."

70836 SALIX PURPUREA PENDULA SAL HT PRICE: $ 5.50 "Weeping Artic Willow" Slender weeping branches of glaucous foliage--nearly prostrate, but easily staked to any height you wish. This is great fun trailing over a wall or covering a steep slope/embankment. Our ancient stock plant is sited on the edge of the koi pond where it does a mangrove minic routine, the fingerling sized koi finding this the perfect protected environment.

70418 SALIX REPENS BOYD'S PENDULOUS SAL HT PRICE: $ 22.00 Prostrate curving stems; wonderful snaking over a rockery boulder.

70420 SALIX SACHALINENSIS SEKKA SAL HT PRICE: $ 10.00 "Fan-tail Willow" Small tree with new chestnut-brown stems forming flattened and recurved "fans" much used in Japanese arrangements; male clone with large silvery-gray catkins. Also `Dzyariu Yanagi' or "Dragon Willow" in Japan. We promise to ship you established noncrested sections as the fasciated tips typically fail to establish even if initially rooting. Thus your shrub will not immediately form the famous cockscombs until it is established.

70795 SALIX UVA-URSI SAL HT PRICE: $ 15.00 "Bearberry Willow" Ground hugging mat of brown twigs seldom over 2" tall, with large shiny leaves (glaucous beneath) and cute yellow catkins. Native to Zone 1 areas of North America, this one can take exposed troughs easily, but can be seriously damaged by prolonged summer heat.

55513 SALVIA NAPIFOLIA LAB HT HH PRICE: $ 5.75 LIMITED AVAILABILITY A new attractively foliaged species with true deep blue flower spikes reaching 2 feet once established. This is the Plantworld clone.

71120 SAMBUCUS CANADENSIS AUREA CAP H PRICE: $ 12.00 "Golden American Elderberry" Golden yellow foilage; red fall berries. Needs good drainage and full sun to thrive.

81767 SANGUISORBA TENUIFOLIA PURPUREA ROS HT PRICE: $ 8.50"Purple Burnet" erect stems reaching 4' cloaked with pinnate ferny leaves and topped with purple flower spikes late summer. Considered an herb because the edible lacy foliage is scented and flavored of cucumber.

51900 SARRACENIA DANA'S DELIGHT [HYB] SAR HT CGH PRICE: $ 6.50 AVAILABLE IN MAY Fabulous "Purple Netted Pitcher Plant" with elegant pink capped hollow "Hunter's Horn" upright "leaves" of pink and green fantastically netted reddish purple with especially brilliant pink and red contrasts on the ruffled big hoods.

A Japanese selection of this stunning bamboo forming thick evergreen displays not burning or browntipping even in full winter sun; seldom shows much winter damage unless in a windy location. Refer to Sasa and Pleioblastus for a group of its close kin.

80964 SASA VEITCHII GRA HT CGH PRICE: $ 38.00 "Kuma Bamboo" Zone 8 Japan. Low growing ground cover to 2' with wide leaves becoming highly decorative in fall as leaf margines and tips turn a dry straw tone due to chlorophyll disappearing gradually; dense habit forming thickets supported by slim arching purplish canes. Performs well as a pot subject--but never allow to dry out. Check on other low growing "Bamboo" formerly called 'Sasa' in the Pleioblastus entries on the preceeding pages.

30684 SAUROMATUM VENOSUM [GUTTATUM] ARAC TGH PRICE: $ 4.25 "Voo Doo Bulb" whose current name is Typhonium. Quite hardy here if the bulb is situated below the frost line in perfectly (totally perfectly) drained soil. Even if an old large bulb rots in an unusually extended winter season, typically a number of harder bulbils will persist to reestablish the dramatic clump. We have had the unforgetably scented and suggestively colored spathes poke up through a layer of snow several times during the past winters in our Zone 6b gardens.

83047 SAXIFRAGA VEITCHIANA SAX HH HT PRICE: $ 2.75 The "Red Carpet" groundcover for moist places--thick solid rounded "Mars Red" leaves in profusion, each covered with showy red hair.

If you grow hardy Euphorbia in your gardens, why not plant this spurge shrub as a thematic backdrop? If the stems become too large, simply stool the stems down to ground level to encourage a perfect whiskbroom of slim stems to emerge the following spring. From Arnold Arboretum seeds distributed by its most devoted fan, Gary Koller.

83268 SEDUM AIZOON AURANTIACUM CRA HT PRICE: $ 4.25 "Orange Stonecrop" A hardy succulent with waxy leaves on sturdy decidious stems reaching 8" topped with heads of golden orange flowers. A slowly clustering species seldom offered, perhaps more curious than decorative, but certainly necessary.

70649 SYRINGA SPECIES FATHER FIALA OLE HT PRICE: $ 12.00 Variegated leaves on clumping twiggy shrub; fragrant clusters of lilac blossoms similar to Miss Kim. The first flush of small leaves emerge green in the spring; later a second flush of foliage of this Japanese selection emerges typically far more frosted. May possibly be Syringa emodi variegata--do not confuse with yellow flowered Syringa vulgaris Father Fiala (and this large typical lilac has solid green leaves).

71705 SYRINGA VULGARIS CLYDE HEARD OLE HT PRICE: $ 12.00 Unusual deep maroon red intensely fragrant lilac blossoms held in sizable trusses. Seldom offered hybrid.

70697 SYRINGA VULGARIS DAPPLED DAWN OLE HT PRICE: $15.00 Striking "Variegated Lilac" with cream-mottled leathery leaves. Known in horticulture sometimes as 'Acubifolia Variegata.' This erect statured beauty readily produces many fragrant heads of semidouble blossoms the exact color of "lilac"!

71020 SYRINGA VULGARIS SENSATION OLE HT PRICE: $ 7.00 "Picotee Lilac" Large heads of deep red-violet flowers, each edged in white--giving the effect of a fragrant silvery bouquet. Plant near the pathway so the extremely fragrant white picoteed violet blossom heads can be experienced close up.
